One of the best parts of signing up for a senior living community is the lifestyle. Senior living communities, like Copeland Oaks, offer many amenities to encourage active living. Activity is so important to vivacity and productive life. In Dan Buettner's 2008 best-selling book, The Blue Zones, he describes how the people of Okinawa, Japan tend to live longer than most people from every other part of the world because of their active lifestyles and social engagement. Our research and experience has also indicated that older adults who stay active and socially engaged avoid physical and mental decline longer than those who don't.
In one chapter, he profiles a woman who takes walks and participates in a cocktail hour where the women in the community have the opportunity to gossip and enjoy one's company. The remarkable thing is the woman was over one hundred years old and acted like someone thirty years younger. The entry is a testament to how activity and community can benefit someone to live a longer, more productive life.
